Former Olympian Oscar Pistorius has been released from prison in South Africa and only fifteen minutes later, killed 23 people in a spectacular shoot-out lasting half an hour.
“He kept saying that he needs to release some energy,” a bystander who hid behind a dead body told local newspapers.
The athlete’s release from Pretoria prison was kept hushed to stop a media scrum however the shooting spree is sure to create more media attention.
Another witness who escaped the Pistorius shooting spree, revealed the athlete was acting like a “man who had not had a drink for a long time” and was “sating his thirst”.
